Create Incredibly Life-Like Harmonies!

If you're a guitarist and singer-songwriter -- or a vocalist who also plays guitar -- TC-Helicon's VoiceTone Harmony-G XT is the ideal vocal effects pedal for you. The VoiceTone Harmony-G XT "listens" to your voice and your analog guitar audio signal, analyzes them using advanced VoiceLive 2 technology, and generates vocal harmonies based on the notes or chords you're playing. All you need is a guitar and a microphone to start producing smooth vocal harmonies. And the Harmony-G XT has advanced algorithms which let you double your voice, and add reverb, delay, and uMod (thickening) effects to your vocals. This little effects box might just be the one thing that's missing from your live show.

Check out this video demonstration by Laura Clapp for Gearwire.com:

The Vocal Effect that Listens to Your Guitar

Some vocal harmony processors generate harmonies based on your voice alone -- which doesn't always work. For example, if your harmony processor generates a major third, but you're strumming a minor chord, it won't sound so good. That's why the TC-Helicon Harmony-G XT has a guitar input. Rather than just blindly follow your voice, the Harmony-G XT follows your guitar chords. Play a chord in A minor, and the VoiceTone will double or harmonize your voice in that chord. The Harmony-G XT uses advanced technology found in the TC-Helicon VoiceLive vocal processors to determine your pitch and generate natural-sounding harmonies with no latency at all.

Just Plug In: 1/4" Guitar and XLR Mic Inputs

Nothing would be worse than having all this great harmonizing technology, and having to use proprietary guitar pickups or special microphones to complete your setup. TC-Helicon has created technology which is instantly accessible to anyone with a standard 1/4" guitar output guitar and XLR microphone cable. The back of the Harmony-G XT has dual XLR outputs for the processed stereo signal, which you can plug into the soudboard, and a pass-thru output for your guitar. There's also a USB port so you can back up and restore your presets, and stay up to date with any cool new firmware improvements that TC-Helicon makes.

Made for Vocalists

TC-Helicon focuses on the needs of vocalists. While many of their products support guitar inputs, the main purpose of everything they make is to support singers. The Harmony-G XT pedal is essentially a pared-down VoiceLive 2 processor. More than a harmonizing engine, it's got built-in reverbs -- for both your voice and your guitar. You also get four overdub-style doubling effects with multiple voices. And the harmonies are customizable: Take your harmonies a 5th or a 4th above your pitch, or follow the bass note. The TC-Helicon VoiceTone Harmony-G XT lets you create your own presets on the fly.

Easy Harmony Generation

Harmony-G XT has a good ear for music. It listens to your performance and decides what harmony notes would sound best with your song. Connect your guitar and a mic, choose one of the presets, play guitar and sing. No special guitar pickups, pre-programming, or extensive musical knowledge are required in order to use Harmony-G XT.

Choose Your Sound

You're in control of a wide range of useful, exciting sounds. From a standing position you can switch through the five factory presets, each with a unique setting of effects, harmony and doubling and then choose the A or B effect within each preset. If you only need three presets or you want up to ten, this is configurable in Harmony-G XT.

You can edit the presets easily and store them as your personal combination. For example, the harmony voice interval range offers you an combination of two of the following including two of the same for added thickness:

- Higher and Low which center around a 5th above or 4th below
- High and Lower which center around a 3rd above or 6th below
- Bass, which sings the root of your guitar chord even if you're singing other notes
- Octave up and down

The "FX" for each preset can be selected as well. Each of the categories of Hall, Room, Echo, Slap, Combi and SFX has three alternates. These are more than just add-on effects! These are the real deal from VoiceLive 2 including combinations of reverb, delay and umod (micromod) that will put you and your harmony voices in a professional sounding, immersive space.

Overdub Live

In a recording you can layer your lead melody to create extra thickness. Live, it's not so easy. The Double button on Harmony-G XT activates a realistic, overdub style doubling effect on your voice that you can use alone or in tandem with the harmony voices. You have four options for doubling you can choose from:

Once Tone is activated, it remains in effect when harmonies are on and off and even in Bypass so you can chat with your audience using the same great tone as when you sing.

Connect To Your Computer

Harmony-G XT has a USB connection and a free, included web applet called VoiceSupport which allows easy backup and restore of your presets to a computer, fast product registration and software updates, tips and tricks, and demo videos.

If you're missing that "something" in your performance, chances are, this is it.

"Wish I Had This Years Ago"

Sound:
This vocal processor is the best purchase I have made in a long time. The sound is amazing! Not only are the harmonies very realistic and life-like, but the effects are studio quality and mixed perfectly for my vocal style.
Feature:
The features of this unit are all a guitarist/singer need for enhancing their performance, especially in a solo or duo type of act. Even without a guitar plugged into it, you can use it to double your vocals and just add colour to the overall sound. It even has a decent guitar tuner that is activated via a foot-switch.
Ease of Use:
The product is very intuitive compared to others on the market. Within the first 10 minutes I was able to connect my microphone and guitar into it and test out the one and two-part harmonies. The foot switches are also very responive and easy to switch back and forth between harmony settings and solo voice.
Quality:
The unit was perfect out of the box and is well-made. The metal casing is very sturdy and will hold up well on the road for stage performaces. I don't believe I will need to worry about any malfunction of this box however I have only used it for one month so time will tell.
Value:
The unit is priced competitively with other brands and models on the market. Considering the features, quality, sound, and ease-of-use, this product is well worth the price.
Manufacturer Support:
Have not needed to call for support since the product was in perfect working order and lives up to the specs.
The Wow Factor:
The sex appeal of this product is the way it enhances your vocals and makes your singing sound incredible. Once you use it you will see and hear what I'm talking about.
Overall:
This product should last my lifetime, and I don't expect to need any other. It provides exactly the sound I need with incredible ease of use.
